O'Rourke is a wonderful school with exceptional teachers and staff. The administrators are friendly and supportive. Both of my children attended K-5 and had the best experience. They were well prepared for middle school.

I am shocked to see that Orourke has a low score. I went there when it opened many years ago and my son is in his last year there and has been there since 4k. The staff and teachers are incredible. They have a new principal who seems to be doing a good job so far. My son is part of the "Covid class"...
